Road Wild (originally known as Hog Wild) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by World Championship Wrestling that was held from 1996 to 1999 on a Saturday. It was a free event held in Sturgis, South Dakota during the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. After the first event, WCW changed the name to Road Wild because of a potential trademark issue with the Harley-Davidson club Harley Owners Group (HOG). In 2000, it was replaced by New Blood Rising which was held on a Sunday. Hulk Hogan was featured in the main event of all four versions of the event.
Famous quotes containing the words road and/or wild:
“Much as I own I owe
The passers of the past
Because their to and fro
Has cut this road to last,
I owe them more today
Because theyve gone away....”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“Mine was, as it were, the connecting link between wild and cultivated fields; as some states are civilized, and others half-civilized, and others savage or barbarous, so my field was, though not in a bad sense, a half-cultivated field. They were beans cheerfully returning to their wild and primitive state that I cultivated, and my hoe played the Ranz des Vaches for them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
